    I’m gonna spread puke.

  2. Tomorrow belongs to me….

  3. shortsshortsshorts says at 12:25 pm, September 30th, 2008

    My Republican friend just sent this to be and called it “fingerprint liberal ass-wiping.” I hate to say it, but I had to agree with him. Dammit.

  4. DoctorCulturae says at 12:27 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Oh the horror. Oh the desecration. Oh the hopefulness. They’re Terrorists of Hope!

  5. Sussemilch says at 12:27 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Obama poops rainbows.

  6. Children should not be forced to sing about either religion or politics.

    Stick to songs about puppy love and wanting to get fucked ONLY.

  7. FigNewShoes says at 12:27 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Oh, goodness. It’s like the Happy Hands Club from Napoleon Dynamite in training.

  8. ABitOfACommunist says at 12:28 pm, September 30th, 2008

    left or right, indoctrination is indoctrination. sickening.

  9. Too Lazy To Sign In says at 12:28 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Even I am scared.

    It reminds me a little bit like those “Strength Through Community Kids” that the After School Special was warning about.

  10. Street Organizer says at 12:29 pm, September 30th, 2008

    CREEPY. The Streets would not approve.

  11. putinontheritz says at 12:30 pm, September 30th, 2008

    The ending is so vague. It tells you to VOTE, but it doesn’t say for who.

  12. Strictly for the Tardcore says at 12:31 pm, September 30th, 2008

    FigNewShoes: Either that or Sparkle Motion. I sometimes doubt their commitment, though.

  13. surfacenoise76 says at 12:31 pm, September 30th, 2008

    eh, still not as bad as the kids in Jesus Camp

  14. gurukalehuru says at 12:32 pm, September 30th, 2008

    awwww, you’re all trying so hard to be cynical. You know it was cute.

  15. freakishlystrong says at 12:33 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Eccchh..very “Children of the Corn”..

  16. shortsshortsshorts says at 12:33 pm, September 30th, 2008

    surfacenoise76: HA HA so true…

  17. Jim et al post saying how the comments are disgusting, and then post “these kids fucking suck”? It’s true, but it’s so open to creepiness.

  18. medievalist says at 12:35 pm, September 30th, 2008

    I’m a proud consumer of Obama kool-aid, but that shit seemed WAY too Jim Jonesy to me.

  19. I am hungover. SOmeone please tell a funny joke. NOW!

  20. Hairy Reed says at 12:37 pm, September 30th, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts: I had to agree. I’m an obamatard as much as the next guy, but I mean, these kids can’t even think yet…

  21. GTA IV’s Manny Escuela, Manny of the Streets, would be proud.

  22. What they should be singing is “Less taxes and more war!”

  23. Harvey Birdman says at 12:39 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Kids are so shallow.

  24. medievalist says at 12:43 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Delicious: Brilliant.

  25. slappypaddy says at 12:45 pm, September 30th, 2008

    jeezuss marie, somebody thought this was a good idea? 23 seconds into it an my twig snapped audibly… this is painful all aroun… ain’t we libtards got enuff of the pain thang? ain’t this some kinda child abuse? adult abuse? wonkettie abuse?

  26. Wag Das Hund says at 12:45 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Can’t we leave the indoctrination of children to the bitters?

  27. Sassypants says at 12:46 pm, September 30th, 2008

    It’s been a long time since I wanted to punch a kid, but….that did it.

  28. Wagamuffin says at 12:47 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Where’s Chuck Barris and The Gong Show when you need it…

    Choppin’…broc-o-lllliiiiii (with apologies to Dana Carvey)

  29. wilmawonker says at 12:49 pm, September 30th, 2008

    FigNewShoes: that’s what i thought! Forget this kids, get some moon boots and hip hop.

  30. Wag Das Hund says at 12:49 pm, September 30th, 2008

    regisgoat: Oooh, a “Cabaret reference”.
    Teh Ghey, anyone?

  31. Wagamuffin says at 12:49 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Here in Canada, we would have apprehended all these children, and locked up the parents.

    And shot the musical director.

  32. Inadequate Blackmail says at 12:49 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Blah blah blah. None of them can vote so who cares?

  33. Gopherit v2.0 says at 12:50 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Wagamuffin: Forget that. Where’s Simon Cowell?

  34. Rielle Hunter says at 12:53 pm, September 30th, 2008

    I am getting my tubes tied tomorrow. This is a vomit-fest ‘08

  35. surfacenoise76 says at 12:53 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Now, are we sure we aren’t being had? Are we sure this wasn’t orchestrated by their right-leaning parents?

  36. It’s no Witchy Woman. Couldn’t they at least made sure all the kiddies were blond and dressed exactly alike?

  37. If you liberal pussies aren’t willing to cult out your kids for Obama, you deserve what you get: four months of McCain and three-plus years of Dumbo McDumbnuts! Now go pop five out and teach them to vote for who Mommy tells you to vote for! Otherwise the terrorists (Tucker Bounds and that other douchebag guy) win!

  38. Wagamuffin says at 12:57 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Gopherit v2.0: True! Snark We Can Believe In.

  39. Now I understand something I heard Noam Chomsky say about the Obama phenomenon being a symptom of American alienation. Are they at someone’s new Obama Summer Camp? Are we going to have to watch a sad documentary about it, like that Jesus Camp thing?

  40. They should be singing songs about the great ancient battles between man and dinosaur.

  41. plastic_jesus says at 1:03 pm, September 30th, 2008

    This is every bit as bad as Jesus Camp

  42. graceless says at 1:04 pm, September 30th, 2008

    I couldn’t watch. Tried. Failed.

  43. Lascauxcaveman says at 1:05 pm, September 30th, 2008

    This scares the hell out of me. I have kids this age, and I just can’t imagine… They think it’s kinda funny when I rant about what an idiot our president is and all, but still. Let’s keep the kids out of this, please.

    (I’d do the music teacher, tho.)

  44. Hypersquared says at 1:08 pm, September 30th, 2008

    As a lifelong liberal who will absolutely be voting for Obama, and who discusses politics openly with his two teenage children, this nonetheless creeps me the eff out. I do see the comparison to Jesus Camps, etc. Please parents, let’s emphasize actual discussion with our children, not ritualized sentimentalism.

    (Note: I’m aware that the parents involved probably do discuss politics and world affairs with their kids, but I’d much rather see video of that).

  45. MilitantAgnostic says at 1:08 pm, September 30th, 2008

    graceless: Me either. Sonic waterboarding—I could only take it for about a second and a half before I was frantically stabbing the pause button.

  46. Rev. Peter Lemonjello says at 1:11 pm, September 30th, 2008

    They edited out the part at the end where the kids asked all Jews in the room to raise their hands, where they were promptly lead in to the back of a U-Haul.

  47. El Kabong says at 1:18 pm, September 30th, 2008

    regisgoat: nice

  48. Inadequate Blackmail says at 1:19 pm, September 30th, 2008

    My biggest worry is that this will play into the wingnut “Obama is the Anti-Christ” meme. Idiot parents.

    Other than that, I think this is a non-issue. The parents have the right to raise their kids as they see fit. Besides, this is really no worse than the Reagan Rock Opera my parents had me in back in the 1980s.

  49. assholette says at 1:21 pm, September 30th, 2008

    So this is what San Francisco is like?

  50. SelfDeprecatingFed says at 1:27 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Go after the children. Brain-wash them young. Once they get too old to spell potatoe it’s too late.

  51. Obama!
    Obama!
    Yo Mama doesn’t vote for Obama!
    ’cause she’s a Puma!

    From Yuma!
    From Yuma!
    (or somewhere)
    And has a brain like a tumah!
    She plays the tubah!
    (as a rhyme stretch)

    -with vague apologies to “Tomorrow” from Annie

  52. lilblackcorvette says at 1:31 pm, September 30th, 2008

    assholette: yeah right. how many of you applied to Obama Camp?

  53. Shit, now I have to vote for Nader. No child ever has or will sing about him.

  54. Nice Symbionese Liberation Army flag on the wall.

  55. This seems like a spoof. How could people not do this with even the slightest hint of irony? Oh God. Kill me. Creepy. Also, I laughed the whole time, in that someone-just-fell-down-and-I’m-embarrassed-for-them type way. Eeeegh.

  56. Haha, wait until these kids turn in their parents to the local Commisar of Hope.

  57. i see some future gay men’s chorus members.

  58. Even worse than “Hillary 4 u and me”, and I thought that was the worst.

  59. crepuscular says at 2:16 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Get a load of that black kid… he wants to take it up a few notches.. but miss hare krishna doesn’t let him show her up..after all it’s Eugene, Oregon isn’t it…the antithesis of wasilla.

  60. Taradiddle says at 2:32 pm, September 30th, 2008

    The only thing missing was inserted clips of North Vietnamese children sing to the Dear Leader

  61. JadedDIssonance says at 2:56 pm, September 30th, 2008

    This one brought tears to my eyes. Such Hope(tm)ful faces! The director, however, needs to take an actual music class.

  62. Kev-O-Tron says at 3:32 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Oh no that’s not scary and reminiscent of WWII Japan or anything. Nope. Not at all.

    -JESUS CHRIST!!!! That shit makes Obama look like a fascist psychopath! Who the fuck thought that video was a good idea?

  63. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 3:51 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Shouldn’t the tshirts read ‘Imagine Dope’? It would pleasantly take them away from the nightmare that is this piece of hippie garbage.

  64. Taradiddle says at 3:52 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Taradiddle: I apologize for my “Carter Years” public education. What I meant to say was, the only thing missing was inserted clips of “North Korean” children singing to the Dear Leader.

  65. CTnotGreenwich says at 4:10 pm, September 30th, 2008

    looks like most of those parents in the background are burned out hippies who hitchiked down from Eugene, including Jeff Labowski and the Larry David on the flute there.

    This is why McCain will win even though Obama wins in the polls - these dipshits can’t even put on grown-up clothes, let alone register to vote or find the polling places.

  66. That’s pretty fucked up.
    Let kids be kids.
    I’m wondering if all of the parents knew about this? Did the teacher ask permission? What if there was a McCain supporter in the class, would that child sit out?
    To me, this is like holding a baby up to protect yourself from a bullet.
    Leave little kids out of your politics.

  67. problemwithcaring says at 5:06 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Singing kids freak me out. America’ Got Talent gives me nightmares.

  68. problemwithcaring says at 5:23 pm, September 30th, 2008
  69. rupert_pupkin says at 6:03 pm, September 30th, 2008

    assholette: worse! it’s venice! seriously i can’t stop laughing…

  70. ph7: umm… children should “Stick to songs about puppy love and wanting to get fucked ONLY”?

  71. timmy_the_tooth says at 11:28 am, October 1st, 2008

    I love the part with the flute playing middle-aged pony-tailed hippie hipster douchenozzle as band leader.

  72. Steeevyo says at 12:09 pm, October 1st, 2008
  73. ugh it’s been pulled … what was it???
